I don't know my SS's screen name, but the return address on the package says Colleen K Froats.
THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
I love all my gifts!
There is a green dish towel w/a sunflower appliqed on it and an adorable Santa/Elf wallhanging. Also 6 FQs, a quilt pattern, a magazine, an ornament (that is already on my tree!), a cute notecard and a sudoku quilt puzzle.
Thanks Colleen and Merry Christmas!

Thank you Jazs2, I love it! I already have ideas of what fabric to use for a Crowning Glory quilt. The finger thimble is so cute and perfect for doing hand applique sitting on the couch!

Ducky 12-13-2009 04:42 PM

I just found out my Secret Santa was Mountquilter. Again, thank you so very much!

youme 12-13-2009 04:43 PM

Ducky! I know her!
I did not know she is sucha crafter who creates those kits herself though.
Lucky you! You had a wonderful SS this year.

I received two more packages marked Secret Santa, and a third package I wasn't sure if I should open it, so I put it with the two.

The first package had beautiful fat quarters, but no card to say who sent them.

The second package had such pretty fat quarters, a pattern and ruler to make the blocks for the pattern. Chocolate covered pretzels (which hubby commandeered and took with him downstairs LOL) and Irish Mint Almonds, Yummy!! And cute little hair elastics with a note on them saying they are great for holding thread from unraveling on bobbins. :)

The third package had a pair of beautiful pillow cases with a very touching card.

I would like to thank Sharon b, Margie and whomever sent me the fat quarters. I love everything!! :)

Packages 1 & 2

So happy you like everything, Shadow. You are very loved and appreciated.

I want to thank jodimai, Jodi M. It was a wonderful package of great stuff. I love the fat quarters and how did she know I needed those scissors and pin magnet? Also the sweets and magazine, cutest socks and more. It is overwhelming. I'm very blessed.

THANK YOU! :D

Well, I can't believe I MISSED the grand opening party! I was at my church working on Christmas banners with a group of other ladies. And my box was sitting so patiently waiting for me when I got home.

I got lovely things from Annette (whose screen name is nowhere to be found): plenty of fat metres (as she is from Northern Ontario, Canada), a beautiful handmade card, a handmade driftwood gnome village for luck and a beautiful book on "Dyeing in Plastic Bags", which looks interesting and easy enough to do.

Annette, I just love everything! The fabrics are really beautiful and I can't wait to try my hand at fabric dyeing! Thank you so much from Michigan's mitten ...

Here are some photos:

box came "wrapped" in fabric, adhered with safety pins, and had a fabric "bow"

These all look soo good! I can't believe I went to bed last night without opening and then Liam was sick before work, so I had to rush him off to my mum's. To my SS I will open tonight and post pics. I can't wait - as if I haven't had long enough to wait LOL

I just got home and opened my SS gifts! My SS is Moody Kim and I love everything in there! I must say she is creative in wrapping them with fabric! I didn't want to "open" them! I am a big Peanuts fan specifically Snoopy and the globe put a smile on my face so fast! Thank you Kim for the wonderful gifts and Merry Christmas!

To SD: THANK YOU FOR PUTTING THIS TOGETHER! AND THANK YOU TERRI FOR KEEPING TRACK AS WELL!

Wrapped in fabric! Awesome!

Baren*eh*ked_canadian 12-13-2009 08:32 PM

You know, it didn't occur to me until after I sent my parcel that I could have wrapped my gifts in fabric...
I didn't even have any Chrismas paper either, but I could have used Christmas fabric. I guess a lot of other people had the same idea, but they were just quicker than I was...
I'll remember for next year!

Thank you June, I love it all. My first fg, I have always bought by the yard, and my first kit. What fun !!!The picture of the kit fabric came out dark, but really it is beautiful, and a mat with napkin for coffee, and a supply of blue napkins for future use. The Santa pants are so cut filled with 2 towels. Thanks for thinking of me again.

Secret Santa package arrived a little damaged, but I didn't peek really

Hi all, sorry I missed Chat yesterday, life got in the way but I just wanted to say thanks to my, SS Christine in NC - I have no idea of your board name! I got some lovely coffee-themed fabric which is perfect because I practically run on coffee! And a pattern to make a bag which looks so clear, even I could manage to make it! :lol:

Also, a big thanks to Shadow for all her hard work in organising this and Terri and Moonpi for being SD's little helpers! ;-) :D
